Debating taking the 3.5 year old to a kids flick in a couple of months (they're showing some old classics nearby) and recalled that my first in-theatre experience was probably The Muppet Movie. Followed by Stah Wahs at a revival in probably '79, then Raiders (a terrible-at-babysitting uncle's call).

Y'all recall yours?

Ps asked the wife- hers was Xanadu the poor bastard

Pps it was actually probably Rocky I and II at the drive-in (Squirm was playing on the other screen - it was traumatic) then Empire- this after SW and before Raiders. Whatever.

First movie in a theater - "HELP" The Beatles. Not that it helps you with your request. Heh. I was too young to understand/enjoy the movie. My Aunt took us to see it. Both my parents are deaf and...well, since there was no CC - they never took us to the movies. We were more of a book and board games family. I lived for Sunday's as a kid...The Wonderful World of Disney tv show at 6pm. Memories...
